I've been doing a whole heckofalot of work with Imagine lately.  (I mean
paying work, not playing work...)  Anyway, my client uses a Toaster to dump
to M-II.  For short animations, he's willing to load the IFF24s into
Toasterpaint one-by-one and convert to framestores (at least he doesn't make
ME do it...) but many of my recent projects are 150 frames or more.

There has GOT to be an easier way to get IFF24s to display through the
Toaster.  There's just gotta.

(no, I'm not going to start using Lightwave, thanks very much)

I'm about ready to suggest setting up a plane in LW and mapping Imagine
output to it as an animated brushmap... I SUPPOSE that wouldn't be too hard
but is there ANY other way?
